The Marin Larkspur 1 is a versatile urban and adventure bike built for riders who want comfort, practicality, and distinctive style in one package. With its signature Mixte low-step frame, wide 27.5" tires, and thoughtfully selected components, it is perfectly suited to city riding, relaxed tours, and occasional rides beyond paved roads.
At the heart of the bike is a Series 2 butted CrMo frame with a Mixte low-step design. Paired with a curved CrMo steel fork, it delivers a smooth and composed ride feel with timeless styling. Mounts for fenders, racks, and a kickstand add everyday practicality.
The high-volume Vee Tire GPVee 27.5 x 2.35" tires provide grip, comfort, and confidence on pavement, gravel, and mixed surfaces. Their generous volume helps smooth out rough roads and creates a stable, relaxed ride feel.
Equipped with a microSHIFT Advent X 10-speed drivetrain, the Larkspur 1 keeps things simple, reliable, and versatile. Combined with the large 11–51T cassette, it offers a wide gear range for easy spinning on flat roads and enough support for steeper climbs.
The Tektro HD-M275 hydraulic disc brakes with a 180 mm front rotor and 160 mm rear rotor provide dependable stopping power and good modulation, giving you confidence in traffic and on mixed terrain.
The Marin Alloy Sweeper handlebar, comfortable contact points such as the Marin Adventure Plush saddle, and an upright, relaxed riding position make the Larkspur 1 an excellent choice for longer rides and everyday use.
The Marin Larkspur 1 blends classic style with modern everyday versatility. It’s a comfortable, distinctive, and capable bike for riders who want to cruise through the city while staying ready for small adventures along the way.
